Any videos of Acoustic Watchtower?

So you're amazed as to how Dave's rhythm guitar slaps and strums so "perfectly"...but you can't. Ask all things about Dave and his guitars here.

I have that video as well. It is tough to see on how to really do it. I was just wondering if anyone had one of those tutorial videos on how to play that part.

I don't think you'll get much better than benaroya hall. I mean it's a straight fixed shot of Dave himself playing the song. Watchtower you just have to feel out.
